The product is going to be called NPS Q45T. Not out yet, but on their Facebook page.

@yoby I'm not hearing shrill or an edgy sound, it's like hesitancy to portray an authentic organic sound has been removed. In much the same way when I cleaned all of my terminals (after years of having them transported and in storage), it removed the unwanted without damaging the presentation.

To me it seems as though the signal is decongested, I say that because it's a similar step towards realism that power conditioning presented at the voicing of my speakers. For me the timbre doesn't change so much as it were resistance or reluctance of the drivers to be faithfully controlled by the amplifier, it's removed.

I suppose for a lack of a better analogy, like a projector that seemed to be in focus, and it got a tiny nudge that finally got it into laser like focus.

I'm sure there's going to be more articulate and seasoned audiophile who when they discover this technology will be able to describe it better than I have.
This technology is going to become a staple for informed audiophiles, I would expect.

It will be interesting to hear a comparison between the "new kid" and the NPS Q45T product. I have not tried either, but I know what to expect from the NPS. The thing about the NPS (if it’s what I think it is)...it’s not just a contact enhancer. For example, you can apply it to the pins of a double adapter, plug it into a nearby wall outlet, and there will be significant improvement to the audio, even though there’s nothing plugged into the double adapter.

Since there has been no disclosure of the name of the company and hence direct company inquire is problematic , do any of you "trial guys" have an idea when the "new kid on the block " will be released , and/or more public disclosure forthcoming?

Hi Rick: Your description of your audition of the new contact enhancer is succinct and very helpful to me. I also received some and treated one AC cord with it (the AC cord that feeds my Puritan 156, that services the front end of my system). That includes a CD transport, DAC, preamp, and streamer. The clarity etc. I’m hearing mirrors yours. I have PPT Total Contact I all of my AC cords already, so I removed that before I applied the new stuff. My understanding from our supplier is that once this stuff is applied it’s permanent and can’t be removed. Hence my trepidation about treating my whole system as you have done. Thank you for your pioneering spirit and taking the plunge for the rest of us.
